best 1994 rap album besides Illmatic and Ready To Die

21; all of the vote getters except the PE, Heavy D, and Rappin 4tay

I think you would really dig Blowout Comb tbh, esp since you dig The Low End Theory

i would like to be so self-possessed that i somehow have listened to thousands of albums without ever heeding someone else's words but i dunno how that's possible actually

28

15 (13 before the poll) but i'm pretty herbish

yeah except i've recommended & watched people recommend this album on ilx over & over & youve ignored us so far, why stop now

ive heard 40 or 41

i was pretty forthright upthread about why I've avoided Digable Planets for years and years, not in a proud way but just saying that's my baggage

can we have a new board called I Love Rap But I Don't Have to Be A Dick About It for like, you know, the rest of us

was i being a dick? sorry man, i thought i was just trying to be honest about my hangups

eh I'm probably just cranky, it feels like it is completely impossible for there to be a rap thread on ilm without people being super hardman abt shit or dragging beef from thread to thread - wasn't responding to yr post directly fwiw

aero OTM sadly

still pissed there wasn't a 3rd X-Clan album in '94 btw

Brat and Bone Thugs 94 convo over here.

i thought this thread has had really the bare minimum of nastiness given the subject matter but maybe my perspective is out of wack?

this is the best thing about rap threads on ilx tbh

nas v. jay-z

no, aero, we definitely need more threads of people being super tolerant and understanding of white european max tundra fans calling deltron 3030 the truth.

link?

dude whose fav album was ranked higher by NME than The Source coming down hard on the borks

super hardman, beef lover loves super hardman beefy threads, film at 11

just humblin' herbs

every time I come onto these threads I feel like I'm talking to 20 Michael Rapaports

this is the best thing about rap threads on ilx tbh

yes Whines I know. your favorite thing is everybody being aggro to each other. I'm just registering a complaint, fear not old boy, as long as you're around to help ruin every rap thread there's little risk of any fun to be had for people who don't consider shooting rubber bands in class an elevated form of discourse

for w/e reason the last few posts have been v funny imo

good morning, and welcome to
THE RAP REPORT
starring 20 Michael Rapaports

M-Rap's Tribe documentary was pretty good tho

if not for Zebrahead we might not have Illmatic so all due respect to Agent Rappin'port

they like menacing rappers to be as cartoony& self aware as possible?

or maybe its really good music, two of the best producers at the top of their games, dope rappers having fun idk

i love 6 ft deep, i don't think it's cartoony all of the time, though i feel like it's using horror film style to describe the most horrific aspects of real life as they see it, like some of the stuff they're covering is fantasy and some of it is pretty real. it's not like it's a mr dead album.

guys you BOTH like terrible rock music

i know! should be a uniting factor, not a dividing one!

what is whineys fav album

killer mike doing metal covers of the 2nd arrested development album

ysi?

you can find it on amazon its called 'the hybrid theory'

BACK ON TOPIC yall make me embarrassed to admit the number of these I've heard... I'll just say that it's even less than my age in '94, which was seven

I'm a white American Max Tundra fan -- should I check out Deltron 3030? Serious question.

tbf i'd heard even less until recently, thread was inspired by trying to catch up on a lot of this stuff (xpost)

jaymc there's a LOT of albums talked about itt that you should check out before Deltron 3030, that's all i'm gonna say

Yes, but which one sounds the most like Max Tundra?

it feels like it is completely impossible for there to be a rap thread on ilm without people being super hardman abt shit or dragging beef from thread to thread

this is pretty standard for online discussion of hip hop on all message boards. something about the music, I guess. I mean, even Jeru and the Fugees recorded disses of each other.

Redman (xpost)

Deltron 3030 is terrible

Btw, my girlfriend in 2001 briefly lived with a stoner dude who had a cat named Deltron. We called him Del.
